From the dusty potreros of Buenos Aires to the hallowed turf of the Maracaná, The Soccer Heritage Series: Argentina traces the extraordinary journey of Argentine soccer from its British colonial origins to its emergence as a global force that has produced some of history's greatest players. This is the story of legendary clubs like Boca Juniors and River Plate, whose Superclásico rivalry transcends sport and divides a nation. It's the tale of Diego Maradona's divine genius and tragic flaws, of Lionel Messi's long road to redemption, and of countless other heroes who wore the albiceleste with pride. More than a sports history, this series explores how soccer became intertwined with Argentine identity-reflecting the nation's immigrant heritage, economic struggles, political turmoil, and enduring spirit. It reveals why, for Argentines, every match matters, every goal resonates, and the ball can never be stained. Discover the passion, artistry, and drama of the world's most captivating soccer culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Johns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798295082726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Blurb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/17\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.07d","brand":"Tim Johns","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47965992059135,"sku":"9798295082726","price":18.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_12e355d5-3ba8-4671-97f7-cf70c1c605d5.jpg?v=1767286189","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-soccer-heritage-series-argentina-tim-johns-9798295082726","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
